Panolapse is a tool for adding rotational panning motion to time-lapse images and videos. There are a few ways to create movement in time-lapse sequences. Some people mount the camera on a motorized track that slides, or a motorized head that rotates, or both.

Panolapse's movements are real-world accurate, allowing for natural panning motion. It cannot add sliding movement like a dolly on a rail, but it can add rotational head movement. Panolapse works best with wide-angle lenses, including fisheye lenses, allowing you to pan up to 180 degrees in two axis.
